Description/Abstract: One of TC's own, Dr. Miranda is an adjunct assistant professor in the music department where he teaches percussion. As a latin-jazz "vibes" player, Angelo has a strong affinity for the music of Cal Tjader but he is also a diverse drumset player where for example, he is regarded as one of the most versatile and tasteful drummers on the American-Hungarian music scene. Angelo is the Video Services Coordinator at TC and gives workshops on sound and video production for the CIS department.

When Paul Acquaro is not thinking about the TC website, he is probably thinking about music. An enthusiastic hobbyist on guitar, he takes amateur to the next level. Armed with a few jazz chord voicings and unbridled enthusiasm, Paul has been playing in jazz-rock trios in the NYC area for many years. When not attempting to alter space and time with his guitar technique, he is Director of the TC Web Office, a Doctoral student, and an instructor in the Mathematics, Science, and Technology Department.

Jim Corter has been playing bass professionally since high school. He studied string bass with a number of teachers including the principal bassists of the Toronto Symphony, the National Symphony, and the North Carolina Symphony, and jazz improvisation with Jerry Coker. He has played with bands and some noted jazz artists on both coasts.
